KDE and GNOME: ikona 1.0, KF5, Shortwave Goes Stable and How to Use Sysprof

ikona 1.0
this is where Ikona's meat lies—the application icon view. it displays application icons at a pixel-perfect size in an environment similar to a Plasma desktop.
by default, it just shows Ikona's icon. the real meat is when you press “Create Icon.” this exports a special type of SVG with the suffix .ikona.app.svg. Ikona can process these SVGs to produce multiple sizes of the same icon from one SVG file, making wrangling with multiple sizes of icon simple.
saving the icon will cause Ikona to instantly update its preview of the icon.
once you're done designing your icon, you use the export screen to export your icon.

Sysprof will use libunwind in some cases, but a majority of our stack unwinding is done by the Linux kernel which can currently only follow eh_frame (exception handling) information.
